Day 2 - 4.4 pound loss

Day 2

Weight: 230.8 (4.4 pound loss)

That's amazing that I lost 4.4 pounds already. Pretty neat. I sleep really good last night, I was knocked out like I took a sleeping pill, lol. My goal today is to drink more water, I barely had 16 oz yesterday.

Yesterday was rough in the afternoon/evening because I am an emotional eater and I was dealing with my sister being in the hospital and also some personal issues and all I wanted to do was eat everything in the house, but I didn't. And I'm glad I didn't. I'm glad I over came those emotions and it gave me great results on the scale!

Breakfast:

• 1 green apple
• 1 red apple
• cup of grapes
• 2 strawberries
• 2 blackberries
• 1/2 lemon
• a bunch of kale
• 1/3 cucumber
• 1 clementine
• a couple of small pieces of ginger
• carrot
• 1 cup of coconut water
• slice of pineapple

9:27am - I have mild stomach cramps and runny bowels and my pee is bright yellow. Thank God I have no OAS symptoms.

Lunch: (12:40pm)

• 2 red apples
• cup of grapes
• 5 strawberries
• 3 blackberries
• 1/2 lemon
• kale
• 1/3 cucumber
• 1 clementine
• a couple pieces of parsley
• few flowers of broccoli (waste these don't juice)
• a couple of small pieces of ginger
• 1/2 sweet potato
• 1 cup coconut water

Most recipes for juicing are not as elaborate as mine. Most have only 3 - 5 items. I like a bunch of stuff all in one, so I put a little of everything in mine, and I love it that way. No OAS symptoms for lunch! Yay!

Normally, raw apples, strawberries, cucumber and sweet potato make me itch. I normally have to nuke them in the microwave for 2 minutes before I can eat them. But in juices they seem to have little affect. Celery, surprisingly, seems to give me a reaction. My first juice before juice fasting had 5 stalks of celery. I think for dinner I'm going to try to add just one. I tried beets too, and beets are just off putting! Yuck.

Dinner:

• same as lunch

My mouth is dry and my tongue feels funny. I've been gargling with sea salt water so that I won't get a canker sore in my mouth. From my understand, some people on various fasts may have this as a side effect. I hate those things!! I'm hoping the salt water rinse prevents them
